A New Jerusalem by Mark Hollis Lyrics
[Verse]
And I'm home again
But alone, my child
For the emptiness of war
Remains
One among five
But I'm dead to love
A pawn the same
And I'm home again
Run along, my child
For the water's blood
And so the sea
Summer unwinds
But no longer kind
Heaven, burn me
Should I swear to fight
Once more
D'you see?
Wise words
Wild words
D'you see?
And I'm home again
But alone, my child
For the emptiness of war
Remains
One among five
But I'm dead to love
A pawn the same
And I'm home again
Run along, my child
For the water's blood
And so the sea
Summer unwinds
But no longer kind
Heaven, burn me
Should I swear to fight
Once more
D'you see?
Wise words
Wild words
D'you see?
